Karl Hyde - Slummin' It for the Weekend lyrics

(Hums) [Verse 1] What are you doing tonight? I'm out and I'm riding this train I've got a ragged plum-voiced blonde across the aisle Puts her mum down to her friends Sweetly drops expletives into conversation Boasting indiscretions in alleys she loves Spent all my money on drink and anecdotes She's saying "He's trying to act, love - trying to act delinquent" The stone is singing, sparkles on the gutters of Hackney Down on me [Verse 2] And the can*ls are the sweetest cut of all Deep and grey light blue snakes like bruises And the weeds explode like dreadlocks Turning architecture to dust "I haven't changed" she said "I feel so dirty, I see resurrection ... ... dripping down the walls of tunnels as we pull into the station" It's a divided nation What are you doing tonight? (Piano) [Verse 3] It's so good, it's so good She says throwing back her head I just can't enjoy tonight I want some more Did you see that guy? "He had his phase - simply micro" she says In a horsey accent she found in an alley. [Chorus] What are you doing tonight? What are you doing now? What are you doing tonight? What are you doing now? What are you doing tonight? Slummin' it for the weekend. Slummin' it for the weekend. [Outro] What are you doing tonight? What are you doing tonight?
